Abstract: | Barium phosphate glasses were obtained by melting different precursors in oxidizing or reducing atmospheres. These glasses become orange-red after a heat treatment at 520 °C for 2 h. Glass samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, optical absorption spectroscopy, and SAXS. Hydrogen released by the decomposition of NH4H2PO4 reduces the valence state of phosphorus ions to neutral, and colloidal dispersions formed during a post heat treatment are responsible for the glass coloration. The particle size-distribution function was determined by SAXS. The coloration effect is caused by the change of the particle size distribution. The maximum colloidal particle size is displaced from 75 to 250 Å after the heat treatment. |
